1971 Map of Crafts Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Gunnison Massacre Historical Monument Gunnison Bend stands as a significant commemorative marker in this Millard County landscape, situated near where the Sevier River Old Channel meanders through the desert. This 1971 survey captures a complex aqueous environment of natural and engineered water features, including the Old River Bed and several standing bodies of water like Crafts Lake, Blue Lake, and Alexander Lake. The hydraulic engineering of the era is evident in the presence of the Bliss Canal, Marshall Ditch, and Mud Ditch, which redirect water across the arid basins. Large depressions and scattered borrow pits indicate where the earth has been disturbed for local infrastructure or material extraction, while the Sevier River and its various channels continue to define the drainage patterns of this Great Basin terrain.
